Potential regulatory targets of lncRNAs. a Percentage of lncRNAs that are intergenic, overlapping with exons of protein-coding genes, or overlapping with gene introns. LncRNAs were considered overlapping with exons if at least 1 base pair of a lncRNA exon overlapped a gene exon. A lncRNA was considered overlapping with gene introns if at least 1 base pair of a lncRNA exon overlapped a gene intron. Intergenic lncRNA had no exon overlap with any annotated protein coding gene region. b Percentage of genic (overlapping genes) lncRNAs that overlap on the same strand (sense) or opposite strand (antisense) and with exons or introns. c Percentage of intergenic lncRNAs that are upstream or downstream and on the same strand or opposite strand of the nearest gene. d, e Difference in the Spearman correlation of expression between lncRNA-mRNA pairs from the average correlation, grouped by positional relationship (d) and tissue (e). f Spearman correlation of expression of antisense upstream (divergent) lncRNA-mRNA pairs at different distances between the transcripts
